When you go to sleep each night, there are large portions of time during which you are not dreaming; therefore, essentially you are as unconscious of your existence as if you were dead. I anticipate that death will be exactly like that.

read stories from people that have actually died

their consciousness separates from their brain...they can go into different rooms while their body lay their dead

people that die in hospitals can tell others what they were eating and talking about while in the cafeteria...
